The Melville Island Exploration licence application has been a strategic licence for TNG being located in a prospective area for Bauxite and other minerals. The licence area covers approximately 1400km[2] .
The transaction is consistent with TNG’s focus on the continued evaluation and development of its flagship Mount Peake Project. It has been structured so that TNG will retain either a 20% interest or 2% NSR giving it continued exposure to the potential exploration upside of the project.
TNG’s Managing Director, Mr Paul Burton, said the transaction would enable it to remain focussed on the continued exploration and development of its flagship Mount Peake Iron-Vanadium-Titanium Project as the basis for a potentially world-scale ferrous metals business, as well as the continued development of its co-owned new hydrometallurgical process, and its expanding Copper exploration portfolio.
